Subject: [PATCH 1/2] sequencer: teach autostash apply to report conflicts
Date: Sat, 25 Jul 2026 15:34:28 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <b501b5fcd0b9dde65c1ce358e2f4014dfa340c37.1784993669.git.gitgitgadget@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <pull.2364.git.git.1784993669.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
From: Harald Nordgren <haraldnordgren@gmail.com>
Add a conflicted parameter to apply_save_autostash_oid() and
apply_save_autostash_ref() so callers can learn whether applying the
stash resulted in conflicts. Thread the parameter through
apply_autostash_ref() and update existing callers to pass NULL.
